Hi guys, I have a 97 on a Scalded Dog intake, trying to run it with out a fuel pump but cannot get enough fuel through the Grose style needle and seat, is there a needle and seat that will flow better with low pressure and not leak? . If I have to run a fuel pump , which do you suggest ? I would like to keep it out of sight, may be inside on the tank outlet pipe.

Grose type valves usually leak.
The Daytona valve works up to 9 lb pressure and will flow 10% more than stock.
